With a price tag of only $9.99, the NotePal D-Lite should be within the price range of anyone looking for a laptop cooler.



Noctua Announces PWM Fans

Author: Dale Shuck


Noctua is known for its quiet fans and today announced new PWM versions of its NF-P12, NF-B9 and NF-R8 fans. Each of the PWM version fans come equipped with Noctua's NE-FD1 IC controller for better control over fan operation, especially at lower speeds. According to Noctua, most conventional PWM fan driver ICs put out square signals that cause sudden torque impulses resulting in fan clicking noises due to deformations in the fan body. These clicking noises become especially noticeable at lower fan speeds. With Noctua's NE-FD1 IC fan controller reduces the sudden torque impulse, effectively suppressing fan switching noises. Additionally, the new PWM models consume 25-40% less power than their non-PWM counterparts. Each fan also comes with 30cm cable extensions and 4-pin Y-cables allowing you to connect a second PWM fan to a single fan header. The new PWM models are available immediately at a recommended retail price of EUR 19.90 / USD 24.90 (NF-P12 PWM), EUR 17.90 / USD 21.90 (NF-B9 PWM) and EUR 14.90 / USD 18.90 (NF-R8 PWM) and come with a six-year warranty.




Noctua NF-F12 120mm Focused Flow Fan Announced

Category: Cooling

Author: Dale Shuck


Noctua recently announced the release of the NF-F12 Focused Flow 120mm fan. The new fan uses Focused Flow technology consisting of eleven stator guide vans coupled with a special seven-blade impeller design to focus the airflow and create better static pressure to increase performance on heatsinks and radiators. Additional design improvements include increased aerodynamic performance, second-generation SSO bearings and a new, custom  designed PWM IC for fully automatic control. When you put all of this together you get a very quiet operating fan.

The improved aerodynamics and variable angles used in the guide vanes help spread the noise pattern across a broader frequency, making the noise signature less annoying and more agreeable to the human ear. The NF-12 also makes use of a Stepped Inlet Design, which increases turbulence on the intake side of the fan to help facilitate the transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow.

Other useful design features include lower power consumption, quieter operation via integrated anti-vibration pads and modular cabling. The NF-F12 is available now at a suggested retail price of EUR 19.90 / USD 24.90.

The Danish firm, Danamics, have taken the next step in finding ways to keep CPUs and GPUs cold. The new Danamics LMX Supperleggera is the second improved version of the original LMX model, which is using liquid metal instead of water to keep the system cool. To reduce the heat development, the liquid metal is being pushed, not by a conventional pump, but by a electromagnetic pump without moving parts. The first LMX wasn't didn't sell well due to its high price, which was about $300, but the the price has now dropped to $200. The cooler is Danamics best shot at the high performance cooling market, and hopes to be one of the preferred solutions when overclockers pick their cooling solution.

Let's see if a small country can compete with the already big and established producers.

CoolIT Systems announced its new System Builder Partner Program at CES 2011 in Las Vegas today. The program promises to focus on the system builder market with emphasis on custom cooling and control systems as well as thermal optimization services once only available to tier 1 OEMs.

“For a number of years now, CoolIT Systems has been dedicated to delivering unique solutions to System Builders. 2011 marks a point where we will focus even more of our efforts in support of our System Builder partners”, says Barry Fairhurst, VP of Worldwide Sales, Marketing and Support. “By listening to our partners, we’ve redesigned our product and services offerings to create innovative custom solutions that help system integrators achieve their ideal product vision”.

CoolIT will take the customers’ hardware and run it through systematic tests using an environmental chamber under tightly controlled temperatures to determine the optimum airflow and thermal operating range. This also allows CoolIT engineers to minimize system fan speeds for reduced acoustics. CoolIT says these services will enable its partners to deliver quiet and cool systems to their customers.

CoolIT also will be featuring two new products along with an advanced chassis control system at CES this week and we hope to have more information later this week.



Zalman Releases ZM-SF3 Shark Fins Case Fans

Zalman has just released its newest case fan, the ZM-SF3  Shark Fins. The fan is of the 120mm variety and is designed for quiet computing solutions. It has silicone pins and pads to better isolate the sound eminating from it while the fan generates between 18 and 23 dBa. The ZM-SF3 spins between 900 and 1500 RPM but no mention was made of the CFM generated.The unique aspect of the fan is the design of the blades. Each blade has one large "shark fin" on the end with four smaller ones along the edge of the blade. This should, in theory, help to generate higher CFM while maintaining quiet operation. The "shark fins" combine with Ever Lasting Quiet (ELQ) bearings to make sure everything stays quiet and gives a MTBF of 150,000 hours.

The Zalman ZM-SF3 fan should be available now for $16.99.

First seen during our Computex coverage, Aerocool has gone ahead and officially launched its Shark line of case fans. The Shark fans come in either a 120mm or 140mm variant and feature fifteen blades that have a unique "Shark Fin" shape. Each fan features Fluid Dynamic Bearings, black sleeved cables, a MTBF of 1,000,000 hours, and operate at either 800 or 1500RPM.

Keeping your laptop cool is sometimes more of a job than a notebook's internal cooling fan can handle. Most aftermarket notebook coolers are designed to cool the exterior case, but Evercool has announced its new FIT cooler which is designed to augment the built-in cooling fan by extracting hot air from the laptop's exhaust port. The unit's small size makes it attractive to users that are on the go as it only weighs around 60 grams and is compact enough to not to take up much room in a laptop case. The FIT requires no installation and uses a set of feet with a multiple angle adjustment feature to help it snug up securely against the ventilation port on laptops ranging from 9-18". The included USB cable powers a small 3500 RPM fan that is rated at less than 25dBA. There's no word on availability or pricing yet.

Consisting of an all-aluminum body, the unit is designed to raise a laptop at a more ergonomic friendly angle for better cooling performance which is assisted by a pair of 70mm cooling fans. Pushing 25CFM, the fans are nearly silent at less than 17Bda; the cooling fans' air intake and exhaust can also be adjusted to suit individual needs. The half-sized design means it is small enough to fit in most bags yet the G12T is sized to fit 12-17" laptops; the rugged aluminum body should help it withstand the rigors of being on the road while being light enough to carry around easily. Titan did not provide pricing or availability information.

Author: Dale Shuck

Titan has just announced two new coolers designed to cool both your CPU and Northbridge chipset. The Entertainer CPU cooler is designed for low-profile applications such as home theater and small form factor cases with its low-profile, 6.5cm tall design. The cooler features a direct contact using four 6mm heatpipes. Since noise levels are often a prime consideration in such applications, the cooler features a quiet 10cm fan with a PWM intelligent fan controller which spins the fan at 800-1500 RPM. The cooler is also designed to fit a complete range of both AMD and Intel boards including AMD AM3/AM2+/AM2 and Intel LGA 1366/LGA 1156 sockets.

The Iron Heart chipset cooler takes its inspiration from the Iron Man movie and features iron-heart like extruded aluminum fins and a low-noise 5cm fan for efficient cooling allowing for greater stability when overclocking.

While Titan didn't disclose specifics, you can expect to see the new coolers by sometime next month.
